The '''Pink Decade in Malayalam Poetry''' is the term used by some literary critics to describe the period in [[Malayalam literature]] (roughly the late 1940s and early 1950s) in which a brigade of young poets inspired by the ideals of [[scientific socialism]] and [[Marxist]] world view were active in creating ‘[[revolutionary]]’ poetry.

The term Pink Decade is to be taken as a figurative epithet rather than in its literal sense because these poets or their works cannot be confined within the span of a single decade.

Some poets belonging to this period are [[P. Bhaskaran]], [[Vayalar Ramavarma]]. [[Thirunalloor Karunakaran]], [[O N V Kurup]], [[Punaloor Balan]] and [[Puthussery Ramachandran]].

Though these writers initially shared some characteristics in common like a romantic vision of a [[classless society]], a simple style directly addressing the masses and themes picked from the daily life of the common man, they later developed distinct poetic identities of their own.
